I am a medical education researcher and am fielding a survey to patients or caregivers of individuals suffering from moderate-to-severe asthma to understand their specific challenges. The purpose of the research is to develop a report/publication to inform supporters of patient education of the real-world needs within the community. I am offering a $10 Walmart or Amazon gift card for complete responses to the final survey (should take no more than 10-15 minutes). Your responses will be considered confidential and not linked back to you in any way.

Anyone know of a survey/questionnaire I can use to assess asthma knowledge and management skills based on the guidelines among internal and family medicine residents?

For the Peach State Team - did all 700 teens go to one clinic or various places throughout city? Also, were you specific to a geographic area?

For the 1st group, Multnumal (?) did you say you got the $400,000 for home repairs from HUD?

Thanks - Viviane McKay

For each presenter:

1. Does your asthma action plan have a specific section for applicable triggers?

2. What % of students with asthma have an AAP on file with their school?

3. Does the AAP also serve as the formal medication authorization?

I am working to start a asthma clinical out of a MD's office. Can any of you help with the coding side of things? Thanks!
